Running light engine.
The post with the circular top with a horizontal bar is a signal known as a banner signal. This is a repeater signal, installed in locations where the signal it repeated had poor sight lines, such as the combination of a curve and intervening buildings at this location. The signal it applies to can just be seen at the far end of the platform.
